-B/C mustangs had Nav lights near the ends of the wings both above and below, while the -D models had them at the very edges of the wings only.

The formation lights on the -B/C was on the right lower wing, inboard of the Nav light. The -D had them on the right also, but moved further outboard, yet still under the wing.
